  • Small adults-only site in rural North Yorkshire
  • A five-minute drive from Ravenscar; Scarborough 15 minutes
  • Just off the Cinder Track; access to car-free trails; honesty shop
Whitby or Scarborough? Scarborough or Whitby? At Valley View Camping, kiss that age-old dilemma goodbye and settle down somewhere with easy access to both of North Yorkshire's most popular seaside resorts. Driving to either is a breeze – Scarborough is 15 minutes away by road, while you can reach Whitby in about 20. But there are rewards for travelling under your own steam too – the site is a few minutes' walk from the Cinder Track, a traffic-free bike and walking trail that connects up Yorkshire's seaside capitals, passing through lots of scenic spots that you might otherwise miss. Valley View Camping's level grounds are small in scale and overlook peaceful open countryside. It's an adults-only setup too, so the place should stay nice and peaceful while you relax, perhaps settling in for drinks and meals on the picnic tables provided (you're welcome to bring along a barbecue to create those meals if you like). Other facilities on site include an honesty shop, showers, toilets and chemical disposal. In need of village amenities? Here you're a five-minute drive from Ravenscar's tea rooms, public toilets and stony beach. The nearest farm shop is three miles to the south in Cloughton Newlands. When you arrive, just park up and pick your pitch (with any awnings to the right, please).

Woodpecker shepherd's hut

Liked Stayed in hut was very spacious had everything you needed to cook. Was lovely and clean and bed was so comfortable. Definitely return for a longer stay.

Dean B.

Woodpecker shepherd's hut

Liked Great site! Well signposted, easy to find. We stayed in the shepherds hut which was brilliant. It was well equipped with everything you need, a comfy bed and a private toilet.

Disliked The hut was very light in the morning, could maybe do with some more blinds. Fridge was a little too small, a slightly bigger one would probably fit.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Lovely location, big pitches and great facilities.

Non-electric hardstanding and grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Beautiful, rural, peaceful location.
Great views.
Site well maintained.
Slight slope, so used chocs.
Toilets and showers clean, spacious and thoughtfully planned out. Plenty of hot water, but the block itself isn't heated.
Useful honesty shop.
Easy access to Cleveland Way.
Would definitely stay again.

Disliked No heating in the showers and toilets- so could perhaps be chilly in the cooler months?
Mobile and wifi connectivity a bit intermittent, but sometimes that's a good thing !

Non-electric hardstanding and grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Very peaceful site with great walks up and down the cinder track right from the site…walked for miles with our dog. Nice sea view from the van was a nice bonus too.

Disliked Apple Maps postcode took me to a neighbours farm, so just check you’re at the right place before turning in (schoolboy error on my part!)

Local attractions

Keeping to the coast, you might like to start by sampling the amusements, bars and restaurants that line Scarborough's North and South bays (15 minutes' drive) before moving on to spectacular Whitby Abbey (20 minutes) for clifftop panoramas over the North Sea. Lots of other splendid seaside spots are close by too, including fantastic former fishing villages like Robin Hood's Bay (20 minutes) and Staithes (40 minutes) or the birdwatching hub of RSPB Bempton Cliffs (45 minutes). There's also a number of attractive freshwater spots in the area, with waterfalls on show at Hayburn Wyke (five minutes) or around the North York Moors village of Goathland (30 minutes). For anglers, Scaling Dam Reservoir (35 minutes) is on hand for fishing, while walkers have the green surrounds of Forge Valley Woods (30 minutes) for scenic strolls along the river Derwent.
